Hi
As discussed in cygwin-apps here's a small patch to point cygwin to an existing time zone datasbase when the tzcode/data package is installed.
Should we do some extra stuff to maintain backward compatibility with the old /usr/local/etc path? I don't think so but...
As mentioned in another thread, in theory this should be an evironmental variable. However, IIRC, I think DJ ripped out that portion of the code, probably assuming at the time there was no need for timezone data. I'll go back and check, though.
